dfll_set_frequency_request(9)

okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual and it's literally all about starting the frequency change operation. bestie, we're getting into the clock-y weeds today πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

dfll_set_frequency_request β€” start the frequency change operation


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void dfll_set_frequency_request (struct tegra_dfll *td , struct
       dfll_rate_req *req );

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • td β€” the DFLL instance (your main character)
  • req β€” the rate request structure (the vibe you're requesting)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So like, you're telling the DFLL to try to change its output frequency to the frequency represented by req. That's the whole assignment. πŸ“‹

🚨 important vibe check: the DFLL must be in closed-loop mode. no closed-loop, no frequency change. that's the rule, periodt.
